Now that I have my 15mm Daimler SchupoSonderWagen 1921 (https://www.wargaming3d.com/product/daimler-schupo-sonderwagen-1921/) printed (resin, Mars Pro), it's time to start thinking about painting it.
I want to paint it more or less as it appeared in 1945, during the battle for Berlin.
This photograph was taken outside the Reich Chancellery. It had been taken out of storage and pressed into service along with everything else that was available in those desperate times.
The Panzerwrecks entry for this vehicle suggests that it was painted overall grey, as it would have been pre-war. That's not unlikely, since it was a police vehicle, not military, so it likely wouldn't have been in a dunkelgelb military livery.
It has been suggested that it might have been in "police green", whatever that was, but I prefer the grey since that makes it easier for me to use in a variety of milieus.
Panzerwrecks shows it very rusty, which wouldn't be unlikely since it had been in ungentle storage for years. I might well paint it fairly well weathered, but I don't think I'll rust it up quite as much as this illustration shows.
